UEFA Champions League
- Thread starter Savo
- Start date
Well, first of all, I think that such moves should have been made a long long time ago, like kicking that psycho Mihajlovic off the national team for all the disgrace that he did when he played in crucial games.
The problem that I see is that even though Kezman is not playing for Chelsea, his team is MUCH MUCH better than Serbia's national team... so just because he's not in their starting rotation it doesn't mean he's out of shape. On the other hand, Savo did a lot for the national team, but I agree that we should test some new blood out. If they fail, then we can always bring the vets back.

We should probably move discussion on thish to SCG-Italy thread. I agree. I like Kezman and he quickly became my favorite player. It was sad to see him struggle at Chelsea this year, but as much blame can be put at the formation that Mourihno played as to Kezman always being slow adapting to new leagues.
I think if he was/is given another chance next year (or at least for half a season) and if Robben stays healthy (and JM sets up few more plays for him), he could be a success. He is not kind of player who will hold the ball for long time, he is there to get scrappy goals and lots of them. Kind of like Ruud van Nistelroy. Have you ever seen him score outside the 5 yard box?
I agree that Kezman without regular starts is still probably in better form than some players playing in national league. I mean practice games at Chelsea can probably be at higher level than games at SCG league

It's funny how things turn out. A few weeks ago, the UEFA commission allowed Liverpool FC to enter the Champions League in the first qualifying round despite the fact that they finished 5th in the Premiership.
Well, the draw was made today and guess what?
Liverpool will play the Champion of Wales, Total Network Solutions FC. So LK, your prediction was spot on, almost
I think it's nice that L'pool can defend the trophy, although a lot of people will disagree. It's just not the same if the defending champ is not around. I know this is a lousy comparison, but can you imagine the Spurs not being in the NBA next year? OK, you can flame me for that

lol, Hey, Savo, glad you remembered my quasi-prediction!
Makes a change for me to get something right (even if not quite the way i expected )
One suspects the Welsh boys are in for ''a hell of a beating'' (to quote that famous scandinavian comentator who ranted on after England lost to Norway about 15 years ago!)

Hey football fans, the new season of Champions League football is in full swing. The group stage is progressing at a rapid pace.
I'm watching Barcelona : Panathinaikos right now and I fell sorry for the Greeks. It's 4:0 at halftime
You can find results and fixtures on this website:
http://www.soccerway.com//international/europe/uefa-champions-league
By the way, this site is a great place to find all kinds of results and tables if you are into betting.
Now, here's a question for you, who will win it this year? Can Liverpool repeat? Will Barça finally do something? Or will "big mouth" Mourinho get his hands on the Trophy again? What about Juventus, AC Milan, Real Madrid, Manchester United, Inter Milan? Someone else maybe?
I say Chelsea will take it this time (not that I'm a fan, but they are quite scary).
